One interesting possibility is using the n810 to shuttle images from a digital camera to the net. This gets around the vendor lock-in that might be present on your camera because the n810 just grabs the images from the cam and then shuttles them onward to wherever.
I also updated libferris to allow you to authenticate from the console, just the ticket to let you set things up over ssh with your desktop browser.
OK, for maemo, check the repository and you'll want ferris, libferris, and libferrisui at least. Version 1.3.6.
If you get into dependency trouble, see the build order to get an idea of the tree. Sorry its a bit hard to get on the device, hopefully stuff will move into extras in time.
Anyone who has used desktop flickr tools, you'll know about the whole authenticate before you buy thing. The below commands setup 23hq and copy an image over to it.
$ ferris-capplet-auth --list-auth-sites
...
flickr
23hq
...
$ ferris-capplet-auth --auth-with-site 23hq
...
Grant Auth following URL...
http://www.23hq.com/services/auth/?api_key=...
Then press return to continue...
<Open above link in browser, grant auth, hit return>
Done...
$ ferriscp -av 26082009071.jpg 23hq://me/upload
Hopefully things will become easier in the future: installation, setup etc. Of course, streaming from the webcam to youtube will rock, but baby steps as they say.

Is there a reason why you use your own repository instead of Extras-Devel on maemo.org?
Not really. Though I have tweaked my scratchbox a bit over time, later gcc versions and other build tools.
